Mothers are different: wealthy and not very, high and medium height, thin and plump, blondes and brunettes. But all of them, mainly, are united by one quality: they selflessly love their children. In order to be convinced of this, it is enough to look into the eyes of any mother when she rocks her child. Or consider family photographs taken by a woman, especially if the young mother is a professional photographer. We will tell you about one of these photo sessions in our today's article.
The author of unique photographs is Linda Skoog Torncrantz. The main role is played by the photographer's little daughter, Bonnie. A charming creature, literally from the cradle, used to be in the spotlight and bathe in the rays of glory. And all because a loving mother loves more than anything else to create costumed compositions with her daughter. What role has little Bonnie Linda Skoog Torncrantz tried on? And the little princess, and the astronaut, and the mermaid, and the rat-catcher …
As the photographer herself says, the most important thing in this work is not to invent and create the desired composition, but to persuade little Bonnie to take part in a costume show. A woman comes up with a new scene, creates the necessary scenery and patiently waits for her daughter to have the right mood.
Photographer Queenie Liao faced similar difficulties. Only here the young mother had to wait until her child fell asleep, since in her photo shoot the baby was depicted as exactly asleep.

Documentary photo project "Where children sleep" (Where Children Sleep). Everything is relative
